Active since: 2000
Location: Fairport, NY
Matt broke into the professional handicapping scene back in 2000 but he was far from raw as sports betting had been in his life for many years prior. He made a name for himself with numerous top five finishes at a prominent independent national sports monitor in his first three years, and winning handicapping titles has been a mainstay with Matt ever since. Consider 2018. In that year, Matt finished #3 in All Sports combined at Sports Watch Monitor! And Matt ranked among the Top 3 in the NHL in two of the last three hockey seasons. Consistent winning is the name of the game and that is what Matt provides. He has become one of the most recognized and respected handicappers around and that is by no accident. His top notch analysis backs up every play so he doesn't just give you winners, he tells you exactly why.
While specific systems are not used on a daily basis, Matt is considered a situational handicapper above anything else. Analyzing each and every game, no matter how big or how small the card may be, is essential to be able to pull out the best situational plays. He is a contrarian at heart which is one of the best ways to beat the books on a steady basis.

Rating Scale
A play’s rating will be displayed in each title and ranges anywhere from 7* to 10* for Premium Plays, and 1* for Free Plays. 10* status is considered your top bet amount. 9* are 90% of your top bet and so on.
Enforcer — this is the “Signature Play” for Matt. It is always backed with a 10* Rating and is typically one of his strongest plays of the day.
Supreme Annihilator — this is typically a favorite (or pick ‘em) which Matt feels has the opportunity to destroy the line.
Ultimate Underdog — this is an underdog which is being faded for the wrong reasons and usually has a chance to win a game outright.
Star Attraction — this is a game on national television to provide a great watch-and-win opportunity.
Quote: "This is not an easy business and anyone who tells you different clearly does not put in the time or hard work that I do. In order to be successful, it takes patience, dedication and an overall willingness to be the best. We all go through good and bad runs but it is consistency that counts when it comes to handicapping."
